Content

This unit is designed to enable students to further develop the principles of exercise prescription introduced in HSE103 and HSE301 and to apply these principles in various high performance training situations. Particular emphasis will be given to providing practical opportunities for students to implement exercise programs and to analyse and interpret training data for strength and conditioning and aerobic power training. Additionally, there will be a focus on developing a range of interpersonal and communication skills required to conduct safe, functional and effective exercise programs for improving athletic performance.
